Brooklyn’s Family Vision is excited to announce their signing to NY/Nashville indie label, Good English Records. With the news, they’re also sharing their new EP, Lace, available everywhere digitally now. Lace is another entry into the tension filled, high velocity riff filled world of Family Vision, crawling with metallic guitars and urgent inquiries into modern social life.
LISTEN TO LACE
Lace marks the band’s first project since 2024’s Chop Shop, which found the group resisting the status quo in favor of asking the hard questions. Post Trash praised the record, saying, “Grounded by gritty realism and a sharp sense of melodic song craft and impeccable pacing, their latest record is a confident step into murky waters.” Following the sophomore album, they began to preview today’s EP throughout the year with singles “Pawn” and “Sharpest Edge.”
Known for their undeniable performances, Family Vision has played festivals like POP Montreal, SXSW, Dog Days Fest and Hopscotch Fest. Over the years, they’ve also supported contemporaries like Pylon Reenactment Society, TAGABOW, Bleary Eyed, Omni and B Boys. Next week, the band will celebrate their EP release on November 20 at Night Club 101 with Doris and Couch Prints.

ABOUT FAMILY VISION:
Family Vision channel the tension and pulse of a disillusioned reality, charging forth with meticulous, jittery guitars and raw reflections on strained social life. With sharp-edged, digital post-punk, their music sits at the intersection of urgency and honesty, featuring metallic riffs, anchoring basslines, and lyrics that waver between detachment and defiance. Forming in North Carolina before solidifying their lineup in Brooklyn, the band has maintained a reputation across the East Coast for intensely locked-in performances. With Kabir Kumar-Hardy (vocals/guitar), Dan Howard (drums), Jeremy Kleiman (guitar) and Ben Guterl (bass), their high-BPM rhythms are laced with abstract, electronic sounds, quieting the noise of city chaos. Blending a variety of influences, everything from Women’s dissonant sound to the deconstructive nature of HTRK and even the storytelling of Lil Uzi Vert, Family Vision bring it all to the stage with precision. With their latest EP, Lace, the band sharpen their sound and message, working it all out over five timely, tightly wound tracks. The project was made at Chateau Grand in Brooklyn with Dan as both producer and drummer. After recording each track, they began sampling, stretching, and chopping everything to digitally manipulate their acoustic recordings, giving the songs an unnatural, mechanized feel. Reflecting on the grief that follows love and loss, Kabir lyrically zeroed in on incomprehensible traits like control, jealousy, and desire to unpack how they manifest in a time of vanity and societal distrust. Vignettes of awkward party spats, relationships poisoned by unbridled ambition, and struggles with self-discipline are soundtracked by unrelenting rhythm and shiny, amphetamine-fueled guitars. Lace tightly stitches all of these ideas together, creating an anxiety filled environment of clashing metals and fast paced movement, emitting hope for what’s to come.
